We put our pets down when they are no longer able to walk and function in their old age but we insanely subject ourselves to the aches of aging, the bed sores and agonizing pain that haunt our every conscious minute. I never did understand the Kevorkian problem, it's not like the people did not want to check out. I would think that early religious ideals embedded within the fabric of the country still have a grip on the acceptability of suicide, notions of good and bad forced upon the people regardless of their personal beliefs. As you pointed out, the idea that abortion is a acceptable practice is dumbfounding, where does the choice of life or death lie in that? It is all about political ownership of life. We develop lousy governments to boss us around.
